Who won I'm a Celebrity 2025? New King of the Jungle revealed after ITV live final - who was runner-up?

The ITV reality show drew to a close yesterday evening (December 7) with the public finally making their decision on who would be crowned the next King or Queen of the Jungle.

Three celebrities remained in camp ahead of the final, with ex-EastEnders actress Shona McGarty, Celebs Go Dating star Tom Read Wilson, and YouTuber and content creator AngryGinge fighting it out to be named the 2025 champion.

But which celebrity campmate won the crown? Here’s everything you need to know.

Who won I’m A Celebrity 2025?

Social media star AngryGinge - whose real name is Morgan Burtwistle - was crowned King of the Jungle at the end of last night’s live final. The 24-year-old gaming streamer had been in the jungle since day one and quickly became a fan-favourite campmate with viewers from home, many of whom were charmed by his cheeky personality.

After presenters Ant and Dec announced the result, Ginge told the stars: “I feel amazing. Honestly, (it is a) dream come true. I did not think I’d go all this way, never mind win, so thank you to everyone who voted.”

Celebs Go Dating star Tom Read Wilson was revealed as the runner-up of the 2025 series, while Shona McGarty finished in third place. Wilson told Ant and Dec before the final result was revealed that he believed Ginge deserved the win, saying: “Because he is the titan of the trials, and because he’s done such a lengthy stint, I think that the crown has to rest on (gestures to Burtwistle).”

During her exit interview, McGarty labelled the experience a “healing process”, telling the hosts: “My anxiety has been up and down for as long as I can remember, but in here, I’ve learned a lot about myself, and I feel like it’s been a bit of a healing process for me.”

The result came after the trio took part in the final bushtucker trials of the series in order to win a three-course meal before their exit from the jungle.

McGarty was tasked with completing the ‘Rat Race’ in order to get the campmates their starters, during which she successfully released stars with her mouth while being joined by creatures such as rats, cockroaches, crickets and mealworms.

To secure the main courses, Wilson was giving an eating challenge in which he was made to consume unappetising courses including a pig’s vagina, a fermented duck egg, and a camel’s brain. He described the brain as “foie gras that’s gone bad”, but hilariously admitted that the pig’s vagina was “not ghastly”.

Meanwhile, Ginge was tasked with winning desserts for camp in the Helmets of Hell. The streamer’s head was placed into four helmets alongside creepy critters such as crickets, cockroaches and scorpions as he attempted to unscrew stars.

The three campmates were successful in winning their stars and were treated to a slap-up meal as a reward. Ginge, who ordered a Coke, double cheeseburger and chips, pepperoni pizza, chicken tenders and a carrot cake, told his fellow campmates during their meal: “Do you know what makes this even better? The fact we’ve earned it. We’ve suffered trial after trial, challenge after challenge.”

Wilson ordered champagne, smoked salmon, venison with red wine jus, broad beans and dauphinoise potatoes, and a fudge cake. McGarty opted for a Diet Coke, prawns pil pil, boiled bacon and cabbage and a chocolate fudge cake.

While the series is now over, the I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here action will continue with a reunion episode set to air. I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! Coming Out will air at 9pm on ITV1 and STV on Saturday, December 13, following each campmate as they exited the jungle and their eventual reunion at the series wrap party following Ginge’s crowning.
